About Tad Sumner

My mission is to help people improve their emotional well-being and develop healthy, satisfying lives, providing them with tools to successfully achieve their goals. I do this by partnering with my clients to help them resolve the challenges that keep them from achieving their interpersonal or relationship goals.

My approach is collaborative, supportive, intuitive and interactive. I try to be straightforward, without being judgmental; motivating without applying pressure.

Prior to joining Psychology Resources, I was the clinical director of the Volunteers of America ARCH residential program for teenagers with substance addictions.  At ARCH, one of the main focuses of my work was to create an integrated mental health program to address clients’ mental health issues, along with their substance addictions. 

I have over fourteen years of experience working with both adults and adolescents with a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, stress, behavioral problems, anger management, life transitions, men and women issues and substance abuse.
